Wet-Aged Porterhouse Steak

The Porterhouse steak comes from the back of the cow and is considered one of the finest steaks, combining both a fillet and a sirloin. Compared to the T-bone steak, which also comes from the same region, the Porterhouse contains a larger portion of fillet. The meat can be aged in two ways: dry-aged and wet-aged. Wet-aged involves storing the meat in a vacuum bag at temperatures between 0 and 4°C, resulting in succulent meat. The Porterhouse is therefore an excellent choice for anyone who wants to enjoy a top-class steak.

The difference between wet aging and dry aging lies primarily in the way the meat is aged. With dry aging, the meat is stored for several weeks in a controlled environment with low humidity and temperatures around freezing. This method ensures particularly intense flavor development and improves the meat quality. The porterhouse steak, for example, comes from the back and consists of several cuts, including the fillet and the sirloin. The dry-aged porterhouse steak is therefore the perfect choice for meat lovers seeking an incomparably tender steak experience.

With T-bone and porterhouse steaks, the tenderness of the steak is particularly enhanced when it is allowed to rest after slaughter. For optimal results, the meat should be brought to room temperature before cooking. A fresh salad on the side completes the perfect steak.
